Sprengel deformity: What is the functional outcome of conservative treatment versus surgical correction? [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Sprengel deformity is a rare congenital malformation of the scapula defined by malposition during embryonic development. Affected individuals have limited range of motion of the shoulder and torticollis. Surgical reconstruction is an option to

Preliminary results of two novel devices for epiphysiodesis in the reduction of excessive predicted final height in tall stature

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2022
Background In the treatment of tall stature, the reduction of excessive predicted final height can either be achieved by hormonal treatment or surgically by temporary (tED) or permanent (pED) epiphysiodesis.

The lack of uniformity of the deformations and the degree of deforming in case of orbital deformation [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
The degree of deformation and the lack of uniformity of the deformations are two important factors orbital deformity. The degrees of deformation in the case of orbital oscillating deformation between 40 and 70%, is much higher than in conventional methods.

Reorientation methodology for reproducible head posture in serial cone beam computed tomography images

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Low dose and accessibility have increased the application of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Often serial images are captured for patients to diagnose and plan treatment in the craniofacial region.

Stability of the Maxillary and Mandibular Total Arch Distalization Using Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) in Adults

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Distalization with temporary anchorage devices (TADs) is commonly used to resolve crowding and to correct molar relationships in non-extraction cases. The purpose of this study was to quantify the treatment effects and post-treatment stability of total ...

Cohomology of deformations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Topology and Analysis, 2014
In this paper we study cohomology of a group with coefficients in representations on Banach spaces and its stability under deformations. We show that small, metric deformations of the representation preserve vanishing of cohomology. As applications we obtain deformation theorems for fixed point properties on Banach spaces.
